Anchorless |
They called here to tell me |
That you’re finally dying |
Through a veil of childish cries |
Southern Manitoba |
Prairie’s pulling at the |
Pant leg of your bad disguise |
So why were you so |
Anchorless |
A boat abandoned in some backyard |
Anchorless |
Small town that you lived and died in |
Shoe box full of photos |
Found a grainy mirror |
Sunken cheeks and slender hands |
Grocery lists and carbon |
Copied letters offer |
Silence for my small demands |
Hey how’d you get so |
Anchorless |
A boat abandoned in some backyard |
Anchorless |
Small town that you lived and died in |
Got an armchair from your family home |
Got your P.G. |
Wodehouse novels and your telephone |
Got your plates and stainless steel |
Got that way of never saying what you really feel so |
Anchorless |
A boat abandoned in some backyard |
Anchorless |
Small town that you lived and died in |
Don’t want to live and die here |
Don’t want to live and die here where we’re |
Anchorless, anchorless |
Anchorless, anchorless |
Small town that we live and die in |
